I">Vickers Medium Mark I</a>, was developed to replace the last of the <a href="/wiki/Medium_Mark_C" title="Medium Mark C">Medium Mark Cs</a> still in use. Production and rebuilding ran from 1925 until 1934. The tank was phased out of service from 1939, replaced by the <a href="/wiki/Cruiser_Mk_I" title="Cruiser Mk I">Cruiser Mk I</a>. It featured several improvements over the Vickers Mark I: a higher superstructure with the driver's visor on top of it instead of in front of it; an improved suspension protected by armour skirts; and Rackham clutches, providing a primitive form of mechanical servo-control. Due to a slightly higher weight its rated speed was somewhat slower than that of the Medium Mark I, at 13 mph (21 km/h) compared to 15 mph (24 km/h). </p> <meta property="mw:PageProp/toc" /> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Design">Design</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Vickers_Medium_Mark_II&action=edit&section=1" title="Edit section: Design"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>The Mark II used the same chassis, suspension and transmission as the Medium Mark I but had a new superstructure. The Mark II was equipped with a 47 mm 3 pdr gun and four machine guns in the turret. The back of the turret had a slope so that the machine gun there could be used against aircraft. There were two Vickers machine guns, one in each side of the hull to the rear. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Operational_history">Operational history</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Vickers_Medium_Mark_II&action=edit&section=2" title="Edit section: Operational history"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <figure class="mw-default-size mw-halign-left" typeof="mw:File/Thumb"><a href="/wiki/File:Australian_Vickers_Medium_Mark_II_Tank_(9939651929507636).jpg" class="mw-file-description"><img src="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/7/7f/Australian_Vickers_Medium_Mark_II_Tank_%289939651929507636%29.jpg/220px-Australian_Vickers_Medium_Mark_II_Tank_%289939651929507636%29.jpg" decoding="async" width="220" height="268" class="mw-file-element" srcset="//upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/7/7f/Australian_Vickers_Medium_Mark_II_Tank_%289939651929507636%29.jpg/330px-Australian_Vickers_Medium_Mark_II_Tank_%289939651929507636%29.jpg 1.5x, //upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/7/7f/Australian_Vickers_Medium_Mark_II_Tank_%289939651929507636%29.jpg/440px-Australian_Vickers_Medium_Mark_II_Tank_%289939651929507636%29.jpg 2x" data-file-width="1315" data-file-height="1600" /></a><figcaption>Australian Medium Mark II</figcaption></figure> <p>The Vickers Medium Mark II and its predecessor the <a href="/wiki/Vickers_Medium_Mark_I" title="Vickers Medium Mark I">Vickers Medium Mark I</a> replaced some of the <a href="/wiki/Mark_I_tank#Mark_V_series" class="mw-redirect" title="Mark I tank">Mark V heavy tanks</a>.
